Heli Skiing Argentina
Travelling to Argentina to enjoy its intriguing culture is amazing in itself, but to go heli skiing in Argentina is the absolute supreme way to experience this country and simultaneously score some superb powder skiing way up high in the Andes Mountains. You can go for a tango at the Argentina heli ski lodge and then cha cha your way down glaciated mountains blanketed in snow!
The massive Southern Andes are spread across Chile and Argentina, and whilst there are various Chile heli skiing outfits, Argentina heli skiing is somewhat rare. The huge mountains of Argentina feel truly endless and remote, and there is vast undiscovered backcountry terrain that is just begging for some heli skiing.
Mendoza Heli Skiing Argentina
The Mendoza region is located in the shadow of the towering Mt Aconcagua and is world renowned for its wine production, particularly the Malbec varietal. With Powder South Heli Skiing Argentina, you can combine your oenophilia with your love for powder skiing or snowboarding. The Powder South heli skiing lodge is located only 67 miles southwest of Mendoza in the Uco Valley, a well regarded wine valley (
Las Lenas ski resort is another 200 miles further to the southwest).
The Malbec wines pale into insignificance compared to the stunning peaks around the luxurious lodge where you can heli ski ridiculously long powder lines. With the week-long Argentina heliski packages, you can choose from 3 or 6 days of heli skiing.
Las Lenas Heli Ski
There used to be some heli skiing out of Las Lenas ski resort, but no longer. You’ll just have to pray that the Marte chair is open and dream that you’ll have all the powder to yourself (but you could just be dreaming!).
Bariloche Heli Skiing
There are a couple of outfits that offer heli-ski safaris and trips out of Bariloche, but these are generally of a charter nature.
Heli Skiing Ushuaia
From Ushuaia at the “end of the world” you can experience the “beginning of everything”. An Ushuaia helicopter company offers half day heli skiing trips, and with a latitude of 54 degrees, the heli skiing season is very long.
